What organic compound is used to store large amounts of energy?

Triglycerides, which are a type of lipid molecule, are used to store large amounts of energy in the form of long-term fuel reserves in the body. They are found in fats and oils and can be broken down through metabolism to release energy for various cellular processes.


What is the chemical compound that can not mix with water used to store energy?

One example of a chemical compound that cannot mix with water and is used to store energy is gasoline. Gasoline is a mixture of hydrocarbons that is used as a fuel in internal combustion engines to produce energy. Due to its non-polar nature, it does not mix well with water which is a polar solvent.


Define a energy storing compound?

An energy-storing compound is a molecule that can temporarily store energy in the form of chemical bonds. Examples include ATP (adenosine triphosphate) in living organisms and glycogen in animals. When needed, these compounds can be broken down to release energy for cellular processes.


Compound used by cells to store and release energy?

Adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, is the compound used by cells to store and release energy. ATP is synthesized during cellular respiration and stores energy in its phosphate bonds, which can be broken to release energy for cellular processes.


When protein consumption is in excess of body needs and energy needs are met the excess amino acids are metabolized and the energy in the molecule is what?

Our bodies cannot store excess protein once it is consumed, so the excess amino acids are converted to carbon skeletons that are turned into glucose or fat and then stored as fat or metabolized for energy needs. **stored as glycogen & fat** jmata~

How can you conserve solar energy?

You can collect solar energy in solar panels, and store the excess in batteries.


Animals store their excess energy in this form They can use this later on if they do not have enough energy?

Animals store excess energy in the form of glycogen in their muscles and liver. When they need energy, the glycogen can be broken down into glucose to provide a quick source of fuel for the body.


Where does an organism store energy?

A small amount of energy is stored in the cells. For animals the major energy store are the fat reserves and for plants the major energy stores is starch. Single celled creatures use glucose.


Where do animals store short term energy?

Animals usually store excess energy in fat cells as fats.


If a compound has more bonds what can it store more of in those bonds?

If a compound has more bonds, it can store more energy within those bonds. This is because the amount of energy stored in a bond is directly related to the strength and number of bonds present in the molecule. So, with more bonds, the compound can potentially store more energy.

When a cell has energy available how can it store amounts of that energy?

When a cell has energy available, it can store small amonts of energy by adding a third phosphate group to ADP, producing ATP. I got this answer from my textbook (9th grade). It is 100% right. :D


What would happen if the body does not receive the right amount of energy?

If your body gets too much energy, it either excretes excess "waste", or it will store the excess energy as FATIf your body gets too little energy, it starts taking actions to conserve energy including improving its metabolic efficiency. It will also start to consume FAT, and thus a person can loose weight. Depending on exercise levels and fat reserves the body will also start consuming muscle and protein. And eventually a person may starve.
